Back in 2016, Chilean filmmaker Pablo Larraín had no less than three movies (The Club; Neruda; Jackie) in cinemas in the space of a year, but he's made us wait three years for his latest.

Ema stars Mariana Di Girolamo as the eponymous Ema, a reggaeton dancer whose life is upended by a traumatic incident. Larraín regular Gael García Bernal also stars, along with Paola Giannini and Santiago Cabrera.

A release has yet to be announced for Ema, but you can check out the first trailer below.

The official synopsis reads:

After a shocking incident upends her family life and marriage to a tempestuous choreographer, Ema, a reggaeton dancer, sets out on an odyssey of personal liberation, in this incendiary drama about art, desire, and the modern family.
